It looks as a well written page on Rmail. I guess author of that page
is proposing one of methods for users how to send email, in that case
sendmail I guess, as it uses msmtp. So the method has to be specified
in Emacs and some methods have to use external command, for example
`sendmail'.

Hide Message Send Mail Function:
Choice:
( ) message--default-send-mail-function
        Use the setting of ‘send-mail-function’ if applicable.
(*) message-send-mail-with-sendmail
        Send off the prepared buffer with sendmail.
( ) message-send-mail-with-mh
        Send the prepared message buffer with mh.
( ) message-send-mail-with-qmail
        Pass the prepared message buffer to qmail-inject. More
( ) message-smtpmail-send-it
        Send the prepared message buffer with ‘smtpmail-send-it’. More
( ) smtpmail-send-it
( ) feedmail-send-it
        Send the current mail buffer using the Feedmail package. More
( ) message-send-mail-with-mailclient
        Send the prepared message buffer with ‘mailclient-send-it’. More
( ) Other: ignore


You may read the self contained manual for Rmail in Emacs Manual, you
may evaluate this: (info "(emacs) Rmail") where you will get
instructions:

33 Reading Mail with Rmail
**************************

Rmail is an Emacs subsystem for reading and disposing of mail that you
receive.  Rmail stores mail messages in files called Rmail files.
Reading the messages in an Rmail file is done in a special major mode,
Rmail mode, which redefines most letters to run commands for managing
mail.

   Emacs also comes with a much more sophisticated and flexible
subsystem for reading mail, called Gnus.  Gnus is a very large package,
and is therefore described in its own manual, see *note (gnus)Top::.
